4✨ This felt like cozy fantasy done right? Or maybe just to my preference LOL. It reminded me of The Spellshop in some ways, but I liked this wayyyy better. It was funny, a little unserious and satirical, a sprinkle of romance, and an interesting little plot. I had fun reading it and actually wished I had a physical copy for some of the quotes toward the end. No spice (kissing only). Some cussing (including a few F-words) Will definitely be continuing the series!!

4⭐️ this is beautifully written. The author did a really great job building drama, tension, heartache, and characters that felt real and tangible! Parts of this were really heartbreaking, and the twists were so unexpected. The dynamics were truly so messy and complicated, but it kept me fully locked into the story the whole time. There were quite a few places where it started veering into intimate scenes. I wouldn’t say it was explicit, but also not closed door? I also found it a little confusing flipping so much between timelines. Probably a me-problem, but there were some points I couldn’t keep up with what was happening when

4.5/5⭐️ This was so beautiful and absolutely devastating. I cried more times than I’m going to admit because this one hit home for me. The author did such a good job making us FEEL the tension and heartache this whole situation was causing the FMC. I was torn even reading it
